5.00Excellent walking tour for family with kids, proper selection of spots that captivated everyone attention. Wonderful storytelling, combination of both art and history facts. We have discovered spots that most probably if walking individually would have missed. Great experience and looking forward for new tours.
A breathtaking walk through the heart of Menton!

5.00We took this private tour and were absolutely delighted. Everything was perfect! Our guide is a wonderful person—it was incredibly interesting and heartwarming to spend time together. We didn’t just see the sights; we truly felt the soul of the city through its history, the scent of lemons, and the cozy backstreets. The tastings of local specialties were a lovely addition. If you're looking for a lively, warm experience rather than a boring lecture, I highly recommend this!

5.00An exceptional experience from start to finish! We had the chance to take this guided tour with a passionate, cultured and deeply human guide. From the first few minutes, we feel that he loves his job and especially that he likes to share. The explanations were clear, rich, always adapted to the group, with a perfect balance between history, local anecdotes and small personal touches that make the visit lively and memorable. The pace was ideal, never rushed, always attentive to questions. We discover places, but also their souls: details that we would never have noticed alone. We leave with the impression that we have really understood the territory, its culture and its history. A professional, warm and authentic guide, who turns a simple visit into a real experience. I recommend 100% to anyone who wants to discover the region differently, with passion and intelligence. Thank you for this unforgettable moment!
